pacquiao vs thurman
Does a Thurman Win Mean a Changing of the Guard at 147?
The possible fight of the year could be scheduled for July 20, 2019, at MGM Grand Las Vegas between welterweights WBA Regular Champion Senator Manny Pacquiao against WBA Super Champion Keith Thurman. Both men are considered two of the best in the welterweight division. But if Pacquiao's loses this bout will his boxing career be symbolically seen as the changing of boxer’s best from a new generation of boxers. Ushering in a change in boxing fans' perception of who is considered old and who’s the next level. This is just the scenario Champion Keith Thurman has stated will occur when he wins on July 20th. Does he have a point?
We all remember the days of Manny and Floyd Mayweather being compared, they were even one and two on the pound for pound list for a few years. Both men had not agreed to fight each other until that much anticipated May 2, 2015 bout. Many were disappointed in the performance of Pacquiao, but still felt he was one of the elite fighters in the division. Even though the loss to Mayweather that night, he has seven losses out of 61 bouts, but he is no longer on the pound for pound list for many outlets. In comparison, Thurman has not been on the pound for pound list at all. Some of which is due to the politics of boxing, the other Half has little to do with his actually highly skilled talent but because of inactivity after injuries. Before his layoff ‘One Time” fought two back to back tough fights against the young but dangerous Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter. Pulling out victories in both bouts. At that point, he should have been included in a Pound for Pound list, but because of factions and different promotional and network camps we deal with today, his name was dismissed. From consideration. He, unlike Pacquiao he is 29-0 with zero no contest.
This fight could end up being a serious contender for fight of the year but what does a Manny Pacquiao “L” mean for other welterweights in the division that are considered older and that have not retired?
